Pam's Perceptions

I'm so happy I decided to join the trip.  As I passed through customs in Detroit I realized how much I already missed France, and hearing and speaking French. The trip was made more special because of the people I traveled with and our wonderful guide. We were so busy doing such a variety of activities! The first day I wondered if I would be able to keep up, but I did and returned home in better shape than I had left.

I enjoyed each part of the trip - whether seeing places I had visited years ago but with new insights or having the opportunity to finally visit the gardens at Giverny and the musée d'Orsay.  I will long remember being part of the first group into Versailles - what a contrast to my last visit!!  Other special moments include our picnic at the château, visiting with friends at an outdoor café in St. Malo while listening to the concert, and the visit to the Tour Eiffel at night.

So many wonderful memories.
